	Infatuation Considers Christianity Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Seriously...it doesn't seem all that bad. Praying does me good sometimes, it's good for a player to be Christian. I think God likes players, but I have lots to learn, A player never stops learning.

Anyway, I've got two good friends who are Christians, they are really the best people you could hope to meet. One, well she looked after orphans in Romania last year. ANother is from Stockport. Top people.

Christians

You're too close-minded about all plausibilities. We should all re-examine our world view from a new perspective every once in a while. I fear you've got to settled in for your own good...get out and live a little and you might experience and believe new things!

Stop pulling an MtG - calling everything a troll. it gets boring fast.

And today isn't my birthday.

Why don;t you consider Christianity? It's a wonderful religion, full of good people and good news (gospel). I recommend it, by virtue.

I don't for one minute take you seriously. This is just a troll to get attention.

But anyway here are some things I advise:

-read C.S. Lewis (Screwtape Letters and Narnia books)
-read G.L Chesterton
-hang out with/talk to some of the uni priests. They usually send smarter/hipper chaiplains to uni.

I have athiest friends who are some of the best people I've ever known, but that doesn't mean I'm going to change my religion or my beliefs, because I am who I am. If I really wanted better morals, I'd change my morals. If they're the same morals Christianity proposes, then so be it.

There are also Christians who are some of the worst, most inherently evil people I've ever known.

If you want to be Christian, go for it, but do it because it's what you believe, not what others believe. I'm quasi-Christian, though I disagree with most Christians on a lot of basic tenents of the religion.

I also recommend meditation, Zen-style. Zen is a philosophy, not a religion, and isn't exclusive, meaning you can practice Zen and be Christian without any sort of conflict.

There were a few gorgeous Christian girls at my school, that I kept meeting, so I asked my friend in their circle, (who was also gorgeous) if these girls were single.

I was raised Christian, but don't believe that Christ is the only way to God, I believe that all religions are basically worshipping the same thing.

So anyway, she responded with, "they would make you take a vow to Christ before you could go out with them."

Well Mrs Horse became a Christian before we got married

My grandmother converted so my father could get a good education.

I've been to Christian hill tribe villages - so much wealthier than their neighbours once all those missionary dollars start rolling in......

I wouldn't have a problem joining a Christian Church.

However, for me though I couldn't take a vow to something that I wouldn't honestly believe in. I mean, if there is nothing behind it then it would be meaningless.

I'd be lying to myself, everyone else, and especially God.

I just couldn't ever believe in that Christians have an exclusive right to God.

Not all Christians believe that they have the exclusivity, but these "chicks" in question do.

That's too bad, because they were fiiiiiiiine.

Christ is probably looking down right now saying, "No, no, no ****ers! That's not it at all!!! "

Christianity isn't something you buy in the shop.
Pherhaps there are two important questions:

1. What does my life make sence
2. What's the sence of life. (the goal of life ?)

Question 1 can be answered by any answer.
Any religion might give you the feeling that your life make sence.
If you feel fine by yoga, perform yoga, if you think the muslim faith works fine since you love it to put some rules on yourself, become a muslim. That's fine and it will give your life some sence. It'll give your life more sence than if you would do something you hate.

But question 2 has one solid answer. It's not something that depends on your mood or character.
If there's no God, the sence of life can't be "come closer to god"
If there's a God that sent his son to earth so you can only be saved by worshipping that son, the sence of life can't be desribed by "Follow the muslim laws and cover all women with clothes"

If Inf answers "Christianity" to question one, that's fine, but he's not a christian in that case.

quote: I was raised Christian, but don't believe that Christ is the only way to God, I believe that all religions are basically worshipping the same thing.

This is a typicall answer to question 1 as well.
What you say doesn't make any sence as an answer to case 2.
If God indeed does exist, and he wants women to be covered and men to grow beards, then the christians aren't worshipping the same god.

If people could only tell the difference between these 2 major questions.

Ted, why is my answer invalid while your remarks are valid ?

You want to know if muslims are going to heaven.
I hope so but I believe not.

Now answer my two questions.

1. how do you give sence to your life
2. what's the sence of life
